Bran Muffins with Carrots and Walnuts
This week on the blog I decided to do an update recipe of my Carrot Bran and Walnut Muffins. It’s such a delicious recipe that is so great for lunchboxes, breakfasts and afternoon treats. If you’re one who can tolerate bran, then I’m sure you’ll love this recipe. It’s sweetened with dates, coconut sugar and raisins and is full of fibre.

Savory Almond Carrot Biscuits
This week on the blog I chat about one of the most common root vegetable, yet rarely regarded as a nutrition powerhouse. If you haven’t guessed by now, it’s carrots.

Warming Beetroot Carrot and Ginger Juice
It’s getting really chilly here down in the depths of the Southern Hemisphere, so this week on the blog I’ve decided to share a fresh vegetable juice recipe. This warming carrot, ginger and beetroot juice is just what you need to stay on-top of your health and to limit any nasty colds and flu’s. As the colder months approach, I tend to crave more warming, dense, comfort foods. Through winter, a great way to remain healthy (as well as staying balanced and happy) is to load up on freshly juiced vegetables and fruits.

Carrot Date Bites
I think, of all the healthy sweet alternatives, dates have to be my number one favorite! My heart is ever so happy when I can get my grubby little paws on delicious Medjool dates, but when not, the regular cheaper dates are just as good! They’re such a versatile ingredient, and can be used in savory and sweet dishes and desserts. They’re also a great staple to have in the cupboard for when you feel like throwing something together to satisfy that sweet craving. These Carrot Date Bites are great to make for those such moments.
